This was a digest that came out under the Amazing SF imprint, not TSR proper. From all accounts, it concentrated exclusively on how to become a pro SF/F writer -- maybe a stripped-down version of Scithers & Schweitzer's On Writing Science Fiction from 1981. All three authors are fairly influential in print fandom but relevance to the evolution of gaming is likely to be minimal.

I'm auctioning four Xignals newletters (produced for the Waldenbooks Otherworlds club) on Ebay, and I noticed that volume 9 (1984) mentions this booklet.



It's in the "Acid Test" column by Peter Heck (a regular column in each issue) and says:



"We get a fair number of letters asking for tips on breaking in as a writer. Let me pass along two items of interest: first of all, Amazing Stories puts out a booklet called "Constructing Scientifiction & Fantasy," with more sound advice than I could pack into a year's worth of Xignals. They'll send you a copy for $2.00 (a ridiculous bargain): the address is Amazing, P.O. Box 110, Lake Geneva, WI 53417-0110."



In case you are wondering, the other item of interest was a writer's contest sponsored by L. Ron Hubbard.
